A suture and needle combination is disclosed for use during surgical and non-surgical procedures comprising a suture needle 16 with a breakaway tip 20 , insertable tip 24 or reusable tip 32 . Suture 10 passes freely through hollow needle 16 after a user removes needle tip ( 20,24 , or 32 ) during use. This suture needle combination reduces the amount of room needed within a surgical site, reduces the length of needle 16 needed to exit tissue (for example) while suturing, and decreased trauma to at risk anatomical structures during a surgical procedure or other use.
